The 52-Week Collection - Week 10: Sugar in the Marmalade

Wohoo! Week 10! About one fifth of the whole 52 weeks journey...^^
My sincere thanks to all my friends who has been supportive to this little project of mine...^^I love it so much when you all give me suggestions, opinions and occasionally ask about the progress of the collection! Thank you so much and please continue to support! :)

Thanks my darling for finding the title for their pictures.. ^^I have known San for 10 years now, we are regarded as twin baby at high school LoL when you see one of us here, the other one must be somewhere nearby LoL We have accomplished a lot together, projects, exams, other activities and we shared a lot together too.

And because of this long friendship, I found it quite hard to take pictures for them! You have to know them well to experience the feeling of "Sugar in the marmalade", they never stop moving =_= haha they are so active that perhaps I can say they are hyperactive LoL Greg was a bit shy that day, we had lotsss of fun nonetheless! Only pity on that day was that it's quite cloudy and raining, we couldn't get enough sunlight..with their vampire-speed moves, I couldn't catch up with them without flash :P:P and once the flash's there...pictures are a bit unnatural. In my opinion, sunlight is the most beautiful light we could ever get for photos, "Photography is painting using light", as someone says. Thanks San and Greg for agreeing to be part of the project again =)

The Beauty of Darkness

It has been about 19 months since I bought my DSLR, I am glad that I did, photography gives me so much fun, lately I have been trying to identify my picture style but have no luck finding words to describe my photos...I think I really do need more time and practices to let my style explicitly shown on more pictures.. I would appreciate a lot if you could throw me some adjectives for my photos!

This snap shot was taken on the day I took pictures for my friends at campus (they'll be in this week's collection, stay tuned!), there are quite a lot of couples taking wedding pictures at our school, the mood there is quite good indeed. Not until today when I finally have time to carefully look at the pictures taken on that day do I realize this could be a good picture! I have been picturing this mood in my mind and I like the mood the darkness gives to the picture. Normally, I don't really like to retouch photos... but I need to darken out the photographer on left edge..:P:P and it turns out quite special.

I am looking forward to a few photos sessions with my friends after exam! That will probably be my greatest relaxation activity after exam! LoL

Be Well!

The 52-Week Collection - Week 9: Joy of Pregnancy

The bond is formed since the very first day...

Happy Mothers' Day 2010!
I have swap this picture from week 8 to week 9..I didn't realize today is the Mothers' Day last week when I was preparing the pictures! This picture suits the theme of mothers' day a lot!

On this special occasion, I would like to dedicate this special song to all of you -
If I could - Celine Dion



if I could
I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
give you courage in a world of compromise
yes, I would
if I could
I would teach you all the things I've never learned
and I'd help you cross the bridges that I've burned
yes, I would
if I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
but the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I've watched you grow, so I could let you go
if I could
I would help you make it through the hungry years
but I know that I could never cry your tears
but I would
if I could
yes, if I live
in a time and place where you don't want to be
you don't have to walk along this road with me
my yesterday won't have to be your way
if I knew
I would try to change the world I brought you to
and there isn't very much that I could do
but I would
if I could
oh baby
I just want to protect you
and help my baby through the hungry years
'cause you're part of me
and if you ever ever ever need
I said a shoulder to cry on
or just someone to talk to
I'll be there, I'll be there
I didn't change your world
but I would
if I could

Behind the scene:
Another picture of Bonnie that I like a lot too!

(I was struggling with the 2 pictures above just now...after friends' vote, the first one was chosen...=D however, Chauses will be running out of old pictures soon...LoL so I might include this in the collection later if I am too busy taking new photos...=P)

Time flies! It's the 8th week now! I can't believe it's another week, time flies really quickly.

Thanks to Cherry who brought me with her on Bonnie's photo session day. I can totally feel the joy Bonnie is experiencing with her baby-in-the-belly! Life is such a miracle, don't you think?

Three women together guaranteed lots of girls' talk, even Bonnie's pet is a female, that was a fun day!

I have been struggling with which picture to choose again this week...I have to admit that I am really picky =( {not a very good thing indeed, you just have no idea how not-easy-going I can be when I do shopping..."excuse me, there's a *dust size* scratch on the surface of this notebook"..."excuse me, the eyes of this doll are not quite balance..."} other than this I am totally nice =D wakaka!

Anyway...I will try to be less picky...I promise.=w= So much time could be saved if I were not that picky. =P I know....

Thanks for reading!
Be well~
